Inspiration
In the growing age of the digital era our life revolves around the internet. We use multiple websites on a daily basis for school, work, banking, and/or entertainment purposes. These websites will have some sort of login in which we must have a username and password. The average user has over 100 log-ins and it can be very hard to memorize passwords, let alone create different and extremely strong passwords, that are to be changed regularly.
What it does
Our project serves as a password manager, password generator and auto-fill system. This application is available to use on your PC, laptop, and mobile device. This will give you fast and easy access to all your log-ins. This app can help generate a secure password and will remind the user to change their password every 40 days. All passwords will be stored in an vault in which the user can see all their passwords that they saved at once, and they can add/remove new logins and sites. This application works as an autofill, and you can easily update your passwords without having to remembering it. As for cybersecurity strong encryption algorithms are used to store all the passwords into your vault. The encryption is local so only the user will have access to see their passwords. Two factor authentication will be used for the user to get in before logging into the vault.
How we built it
We used UI/UX in Adobe XD to get a feel of how the interface will look like and work for users. We used python using hashing password algorithm to generate secure passwords.
Challenges we ran into
Being able to get a properly working demonstration was trouble for us since we lack web development knowledge. We hope in future to further increase our knowledge in these languages JS, HTML, and CSS to be able to put everything into use and get a working demo.
Accomplishments that we're proud of
We are proud to have come up with this idea. This is something everyone in the world can use. While other competitors have their version as paid we are for the people and believe our program should be FREE. There are many people with Alzheimer's and other such memory-loss symptoms in which this program will definitely help them.
What we learned
We learned and further improved our Cryptography knowledge with use of hashing and encrypting in python. We also improved on our graphic design knowledge for UI/UX using Adobe XD
What's next for SimplePass
We hope to up our security by offering Fingerprint Two Factor Authentication, and soon even use Artificial Intelligence to create an authentication that can scan the user's face before logging in.
